Move Colorado Releases “Mapping Colorado’s Future Transportation System”

As an organization that has been engaged in the transportation funding dialogue and debate for more than 25 years, Move Colorado has been at the table with elected and appointed leaders, industry representatives, business and civic leaders, and system users working collaboratively toward ensuring a sound, well-funded multi-modal transportation system across our state. Our work has included legislative efforts and state, local, and regional ballot initiatives. Across our history, we have had funding wins, such as FasTracks and the Pikes Peak Regional Transportation Authority (PPRTA), and SB21-261, and we have experienced setbacks, most recently the loss of the statewide funding measure Proposition 110 in 2018. Whether a win or a loss, we know that Colorado’s transportation funding needs are constant. The system needs investment to remain safe and operational, and advancements continue to improve how the work is done – so our efforts have no sunset.

As Colorado prepares for an upcoming election cycle in 2026, Move Colorado has crafted a guide for candidates as they begin their journey of understanding regarding our State’s transportation system and needs. We are eager to engage with candidates at all levels of government, along with currently elected and appointed leaders, and with business and industry associations. Have other groups in mind? Let us know!
